- Summary A brave young girl who has lost both her legs hopes to walk again after arriving in America for a prosthetic leg fitting, in a viral video viewed by over 4 million people. Ruba Almounaier captured the heartwarming moment 12-year-old Seba arrived at Bellevue, Washington, on April 8th, where she was met with cheers from a huge supportive crowd. Seba arrived with her family, full of joy as she was wheeled through the airport. Ruba says Seba lost her limbs from taking shelter in a school during the ongoing conflict in Gaza. The non-profit, HEAL Palestine, arranged for her travel. The charity carried out the largest known evacuation of wounded children from Gaza to the United States, according to local reports. Ruba said: "Their arrival at the airport was welcomed by many people in Seattle, and their reaction was piercing. "It displays shock, but also relief and gratitude. "Their smiles brightened up the whole room and shows incredible resilience."
